He has spent the majority of the past decade travelling across the world, producing, hosting, filming, and editing videos for himself and brands like Red Bull, Helly Hansen, & Terra Matter. He started making short form content on Snapchat and was nominated for a Shorty Award in 2018, before moving the focus of his stories into video journalism, guiding audiences through stories from across the world. His series ‘Origins’ with Red Bull explored the history of extreme sports, the communities behind them and how they have gone on to affect the cultures of today.
